    That is an interesting point Jerry made!  Now if they'd said "Meteorite 
Finder" instead of "Meteorite Hunter", then there would be cause for 
complaint if the title were applied to someone who'd never found a meteorite 
before.

    So ... under that definition, I can say I am a "hunter" of the perfect 
woman, Loch Ness Monster, Atlantis, and the 6 elusive numbers for the next 
drawing of the Powerball Lottery.  Even though I have never "found" any of 
those before, I can truthfully say I have "hunted" for them.

    I have "found" two meteorites before so, sad though that low number may 
be, I am actually a "finder" of meteorites and I can even use the plural 
because I found more than one ... therefore, in spite of what my first wife 
said, two times definitely count!
